21 police officers were injured.

Police have released pictures of nine people they want to speak to after a Free Tommy Robinson protest in central London erupted in violence last month.

Detectives from the Metropolitan Police are hoping to speak to the eight men and one woman following the disorder on Saturday, June 9 in Whitehall.

The protest in support of the English Defence League founder, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, started in five different city locations before merging on Westminster Bridge and heading to Hyde Park.

Scaffolding, glass bottles and items of street furniture were thrown at police, with 21 officers left injured.

The chaos erupted during a protest which attracted thousands of people to the capital in support of Robinson, who was jailed in May for 10 months for contempt of court.
